Ukraine overhauls its military top brass for the fight against Russia

Ukraine has replaced its top military leaders amid internal political tensions following President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's decision to dismiss the outgoing army chief and defense minister. The changes aim to stabilize the military command structure and align with ongoing reforms, including improved defense strategies and resource allocation. New commander-in-chief Major General Mykhailo Drapatyi, a veteran of the conflict since 2014, is tasked with presenting updated plans for the war effort. Meanwhile, Russia's Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov criticized the changes, suggesting they reveal instability within Ukraine and claimed that Russian forces remain on the offensive. Despite U.S.-mediated diplomatic efforts, there is no indication of progress toward a peace agreement.
